    absolutely not! it doesnt mean we to need to dump all the players and install a new system. we rather need to bringing people that will turn our mediocre team into an above average team which happened in '09, '10 but they were aging players. drafting hill, mo wilk, couples, kerley, keller, etc is a good start

    Isn't it basically a .5 favorite?

    Home gives 3 points?

    You're 2-3. Several teams in the league are 1-4 and Cleveland is 0-5. No one thinks the Jets are the worst team in the league. You are arguing against a ridiculous strawman.

    it's a rookie QB in only his second road game with no starting running back and Mathis not playing on defense.

    Are there odds on whether Luck outplays Sancho?

    I know I will be shocked if Keller is in the game. Hope he is so that Sad sack feels more comfortable.

    That would be an awesome virtual vegas bet. Alas, I have no virtual currency because I always bet on us to win.

    So the Jets are favored by basically .5 against a team with a Rookie QB and a team without its head coach. That probably explains it

    Make no mistake the Jets are bad and will not make the playoffs. Beyond that its difficult to predict what their record will be besides saying some where below 500. One important thing to note teams and players do not exist in a vacuum. For example, the Broncos last year and the Seahawks the year before were not good teams but made the playoffs because they played even worse teams in their division. While I may be very knowledgeable about the Jets, I don't follow other teams and at best only see the highlights on ESPN. I'm only vaguely familiar with the Colts and know that Luck is coming out of the gates strong. Beyond that I can't imagine an 0-16 team being able to become a playoff team the next year by adding an excellent rookie QB. So, I'd say this game should be evenly matched, I'd give the Jets a 40% chance of winning.

    You could take positives and negatives from last weeks game. Jets showed heart and could have beat a good team and they're getting Keller back. On the other hand they looked desperate and disorganized. The defense got gashed and Sanchez and his receivers looked out of sync. Overall there is a chance of a let down after putting that much effort into that game. Colts did also beat Greenbay so I think it's only fair to give them the advantage.

    U remember that the line was only 4 for the SF game. Lines don't always determine the final score FYI.
